Chapati Cafe

Chapati Cafe is an Indian restaurant and a recent addition to the Chorlton food scene, offering south Manchester residents a credible alternative to even the curry mile's best restaurants.

Serving fresh, fast, homemade curries at good value, Chapati Cafe is situated just off Wilbraham Road and has a revolving menu of curries that changes through the week. Served on steel Thalis, you can choose up to three curries per person from a wide selection, with the restaurant quick to recommend its specials — such as the Giloda or the Kaleji (a dish based around lamb or chicken livers). In addition to this, Chapati Cafe are also proud of their Dhals and Khaddis, while lighter snacks are also available for those who just want to pop in and out.

Given the quick nature of the restaurant's service, Chapati Cafe tends to hit its peak popularity at lunch time, with those taking their work break advised to get down sharply. Chapati Cafe does open in the evening too though, for those with a little more time to spend with their meal. [William Gunn]
